Chapter 304: Kill the King and Surrender


After the east city wall was breached, the defenders on the north, south, and west walls were disheartened after receiving the news.

The defenders had to retreat into the city with their remaining defeated soldiers in order to use the streets and houses to continue to resist.

However, the Han army and other armies from the Western Regions had already entered the city from outside the city.

There were enemies on all sides, and the Shule army was already in panic.

In the palace in the middle of the city, King Shule held a bloody sword and murmured to himself: "How could it be like this?

How could the Shule Kingdom be like this in the hands of a few people?"

Suddenly, Jingpan raised his head and looked at the queen.

There was a fierce light in his eyes and a ferocious face.

He pointed a knife at the queen and said with murderous intent: "It's you, you are a bitch.

If you weren't a bitch, you are here all day long."

If you are slandering me in front of me, how can I protect the bitch who is harming the country and the people?

Die."

With a "poof" sound, the sharp blade pierced the queen's abdomen.

The queen pointed at the well plate with a look of pain: "You" then fell to the ground and died.

"Come here," Jingpan called outside as he wiped the blood on the knife with the hem of his royal robe.

The palace manager walked in quickly and saluted the well pan and said: "Your Majesty" Jingpan asked: "How is the war going?"

"Not long ago, the north, south and west walls of the city fell one after another.

The Han army and allied forces from other countries have entered the city.

The soldiers are resisting with all their strength.

Please rest assured, Your Majesty, even if all the soldiers die in battle, they will not This will put the king’s safety at risk.”

Jingpan asked: "Where is Anguo now?"

"Assist in resisting the Khotanese army's attack in Dongcheng District" "Call all the palace guards to follow me."

Jingpan walked out holding the knife.

"yes" After a while, Jingpan rushed to Dongcheng District with hundreds of palace guards and met Anguo.

At this time, Anguo was commanding his remaining more than a hundred guards to resist the Khotan army's attack.

He was also trying to persuade these Yutian soldiers to attack.

The Khotanese army rebelled, but no one responded.

Jingpan came with a force of men and horses, and surrounded Anguo's people on the spot and controlled him.

Anguo looked at Jingpan and said angrily: "Jingpan, what are you doing?

The enemy is attacking, but we are fighting among ourselves?"

Jingpan said with a gloomy face: "If it weren't for your father and daughter's deception, how could I let Shule Kingdom fall into this situation?

It's all your fault, but let me, Shule Kingdom, bear the consequences.

Your daughter has been If I kill you, just surrender and capture him.

Someone comes and kills all his men."

"yes" When Anguo saw this scene, he knew that he was completely finished.

He had just been thinking about finding a way to break out.

There was always a place for him in this world, but he didn't expect that Jingpan would come from behind at this moment.

Anguo's bodyguards were all killed in an instant, leaving Anguo alone with a knife held to his neck by one of Jingpan's bodyguards.

Jingpan gritted his teeth and said, "Come here, send someone to shout and surrender to the Han army."

When Xu Huang heard the Shule army on the opposite side calling King Shule to surrender, he ordered a halt to the attack.

He immediately sent someone to notify Liu Cheng outside the city, and immediately came to the forefront of the battle to see King Shule's well plate.

Jingpan saluted Xu Huang and said, "The defeated general pays homage to General Xu."

Xu Huang said: "I have sent someone to report to General Chariot and Cavalry.

I believe General Chariot and Cavalry will receive an order soon.

King Shule must immediately order the other garrison defenders in the city to surrender."

"Yes, yes, Xiao Wang immediately ordered the whole city to surrender," Shule King Jingpan said immediately, and turned around to let his subordinates convey the order.

Not long after, after receiving the order, the Shule garrison in the city dropped their weapons and surrendered.

After receiving the report, Liu Cheng ordered part of the Han army to stay outside the city and the other part to enter the city to accept the surrender of the defenders.

There are corpses everywhere on the streets in Shule City.

There are houses smashed by stone bullets and houses hit by kerosene bombs and set on fire.

Some residents were buried alive hiding in their houses.

Some were seriously injured.

Survived by hiding in the cellar.

Liu Cheng rode his horse and came to King Shule's well plate.

The well plate immediately bowed down and said, "The guilty minister King Shule was deceived by Anguo's father and daughter and became an enemy of the Celestial Empire.

He really deserves death.

General, please remember me."

For the sake of the Shule Kingdom’s long-term loyalty to the Celestial Empire, I forgive Shule.

Le people, everything is the fault of Jing Pan.

If the general punishes me, just punish me.

The damn queen has been executed by the guilty minister, and her head is here.

Anguo has also been captured by the guilty minister.

Now she is dedicated to the general, no matter what.

The general will deal with the incoming people and bring them up."

An Guo was escorted over.

Liu Cheng looked at him on horseback.

Everyone felt a cold light flash by and An Guo's body and head were separated.

"Drag it down and bury it."

Liu Cheng waved his hand, sheathed his sword and waved forward: "Jingpan, let's go, go to your palace."

Jingpan was so frightened by Anguo's death that his legs became weak and he could no longer walk.

Liu Cheng took a look and had to have someone help him onto a horse.

After a while, Liu Cheng and Jingpan arrived at the palace.

The soldiers were collecting the surrendered prisoners.

Generals from the Western Regions also received orders and rushed to the palace.

Liu Cheng sat on Jingpan's throne, while Jingpan and several of his ministers knelt below.

On both sides stood Han army generals and officials and generals from the Western Regions.

Liu Cheng told Xu Huang: "Gong Ming, please go and pass the general's military order to restrain all military personnel.

Rape, robbery, murder and arson are not allowed.

Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed."

"Yes" Xu Huang took the order and left.

Liu Cheng looked at Jingpan and his ministers below and asked: "Jingpan, what do you think this general will do with you?"

Jingpan was trembling all over and sweating profusely.

He lay on the ground and trembled: "General, spare my life."

Liu Cheng pondered for a moment and said: "Since you have surrendered, although it is a little late, you still have some regrets.

I have decided not to kill you and let you continue to be the king.

What do you think?"

"Ah, thank you General, thank you General for not killing me."

Jingpan kowtowed repeatedly.

Liu Cheng changed his voice again: "However, you can not die and can continue to be the king, but you ministers can't.

You have made such a serious mistake, but they, the ministers, do not stand up to advise and stop them.

They are too I've neglected my duty, what do you think?"

"Yes, yes, they all deserve to die, they all deserve to die," Jingpan said hurriedly.

The ministers behind him immediately cursed him angrily, and for a while the entire hall was filled with curses.

Liu Cheng waved his hand: "Come here, drag these people out and chop them up."

The soldiers outside the palace rushed in after hearing the sound and dragged out all the ministers behind Jingpan.

They shouted and begged for mercy, but after a while, all the shouts stopped.

Jingpan seemed to have had his backbone broken.

He was lying on the ground shivering.

His former violence and stubbornness were nowhere to be seen.

"Come here, bring a stool for King Shule to sit on."

A soldier directed several maids to bring a stool.

After King Jingpan of Shule thanked him, he sat down cautiously, but he only dared to sit half-assed on the stool.

The generals and officials of the Han army secretly laughed when they saw this.

At this time, Liu Cheng asked again: "Which generals led the troops to break through the three walls of the north, south and west just now?

Stand up and let me have a look."

Liu Cheng asked.

One of the generals from Qiuci, Yanqi and Cheshi stood up and saluted Liu Cheng: "Greetings to the general, I have fulfilled my mission and finally broke through the city wall and entered the city."

Liu Cheng nodded, looked at the three people, and said: "Okay, I will appoint you three as kings of Qiuci, Yanqi and Cheshi respectively, and order you to exercise the rights of the king from now on.

In a few days, I will appoint you three kings."

I also want to lead an army to inspect your country.

If there are people in your country who are dissatisfied, this general can help you eliminate them."

The three of them were overjoyed and thanked Liu Chengxing with great gifts: "Thank you so much, general.

I will represent all my subjects to be loyal to the general and the Celestial Empire and never betray them."

Liu Cheng nodded and said: "Very good, I, the Celestial Empire, have the obligation and responsibility to maintain the peace of the Western Regions.

You must ensure the smooth flow of the Silk Road.

This is a major event that will make the Celestial Empire and your countries rich.

Okay, the soldiers have been attacking the city in the past two days.

It’s hard work and the casualties are heavy.

Everyone, please go back and reward the soldiers.”

"I'll take my leave."

After the generals from various countries left, Liu Cheng said to King Shule again: "King Shule, you should find some new ministers to help you handle state affairs.

Now the city is full of waste, and it is the time to recruit people.

You must choose talented people to assist you. .

Let’s do this.

I will ask the Governor of the Western Regions to temporarily send an official to help you handle government affairs.

You need to find the remaining ministers yourself.

What do you think?”

How could Jingpan dare to agree to everything: "It all depends on the general?"

"Okay," Liu Cheng said, looking at Shifu, the Chief of the Western Regions, and asked, "Master Shifu, can your Chief of the Western Regions still send officials to temporarily assist King Shule in handling government affairs?"

Of course Shi Fu understood what Liu Cheng meant, and stood up and agreed: "Although the officials in Chang Shi's Mansion are also very nervous, the government affairs of Shule State are also important matters.

I can still recruit an official if I grit my teeth here."

Liu Cheng waved his hand and said: "Then it's settled."

Three days later, Liu Cheng led the Han army and the armies of various countries in the Western Regions to set off for the Kingdom of Kucha.

This time Shule King Jingpan also brought hundreds of soldiers with him.

By this time, Liu Cheng was accompanied by more than a dozen kings of the Western Regions.

Well, these people, together with their guards and the accompanying army, totaled 60,000 to 70,000 people, and the expenses for eating, drinking, and sleeping were quite large, but this did not require Liu Cheng to worry about, as the countries in the Western Regions had plenty of money.

A few days later, the army entered the Gumo Kingdom.

King Gumo led his ministers and generals from the south city of the capital to the border to greet him.

Liu Cheng was very satisfied with King Gumo's attitude.

At least this person was not like some of the Western Regions.

The king is so arrogant.

King Gu Mo took Liu Cheng to Nancheng, the capital, and vacated his palace for Liu Cheng to live in.

Liu Cheng accepted the offer, but politely declined, and only lived in the residence prepared for him by King Gu Mo in the city.

In the next two days, the king of Weitou Kingdom in the west of Gumo Kingdom came with a guard of one hundred people and a large number of cattle, sheep and treasures to visit Liu Cheng and offer these tributes
